    There's a dodgy ad using webbugs to track users, but it's also using a bad SSL cert.

    Temporarily blocked the top banner element, so far that's been the only one delivering annoying audio-enabled ads. One time this week the top banner even played a "square" video commercial that autoplayed: only the top corner of the ad was visible. Something is funky in that html I tells ya.

    Having issues with a banner ad for Pepsi max on the touch site. Every page with it comes up with a security warning.

    Regarding the iPhone 5 Winner ad and the You have Unread Mail audio ad - we have blocked these already but they have changed the URL slightly - we are looking into a more permanent way of blocking these now. Thanks for reporting :)

    Think this ad shouldn't be here, it slides across the middle of the screen.

    And it just scared the **** out of me again, even with my top-banner block rule from last week, the top banner is still populating.


  • Registered Users Posts: 81,526 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    Still coming up.

    I jump between being ****ing annoyed and being amused by violently waving my mouse at them.

    Your efforts are appreciated :) best of luck!

    On this page: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057265538 the attached ad is showing, it more strobes than flashes.

    Its a 'your computer is broken' as, that is undesirable.

    It was reported to the team again yesterday so it should be removed some time today. Unfortunately with undesirable Google Ads, from what I understand the people behind the ad can just tweak the URL slightly and resubmit the same ads to be served again and again...it may appear as the same ad but has been submitted as a new one, directing to a *slightly* different URL. We are trying to nab them all though, they are awful looking and annoying, no argument here.

    Two ads at once:

    Looks a bit dodgy if someone is looking over your shoulder.

    Theres consistently a "fly emirates airlines" advert on the side of any thread I go into.

    I don't mind adverts but it actually takes up space in peoples posts and I cant actually read what people are writing (cuts off on average the last 2 words of each sentence)..
